For

 

clarity

 

and

 

uniformity,

 

we

 

have

 

given

 

all

 

metric

 

measurement

 

in

 

millimeters

 

(mm),

 

even

 

though

 

in

 

some

 

cases

 

the

 

common

 

practice

 

may

 

be

 

to

 

use

 

centimeters

 

(cm).

  

To

 

convert

 

to

 

cm,

 

divide

 

millimeters

 

by

 

10.

  

For

 

the

 

same

 

reasons

 

we

 

have

 

omitted

 

inch

 

conversions

 

in

 

many

 

cases.

 

To

 

convert

 

mm

 

to

 

inches,

 

divide

 

mm

 

by

 

25.4

 

or

 

multiply

 

by

 

.04.

  

Note

 

that

 

In

 

all

 

cases

 

and

 

for

 

all

 

readings,

 

measurements

 

can

 

be

 

indicated

 

in

 

either

 

mm

 

or

 

inches.
